I was watching vh1 classic this evening, and was rewarded by not one but two Fleetwood Mac-related programs (one for Rumours-era, one for pre-Rumours).
During the "Tuesday 2Play" program, there was a commercial for Mick Fleetwood Band's Something Big. It consisted of a scrolling text advertising the release on the bottom and video clips of Mick making funny faces (figures, eh? ;) ). The music actually sounded fairly good.
Just thought I ought to post that...And, sorry if I made anyone who does not have vh1 classic jealous.

Oops...I suppose my phrasing was misleading. Sorry. The two programs were really the "Something Big" commercial and the "This Day In Music" snippet, which I posted about in the Pre-Rumours forum. :sorry: to get your hopes up...

Okay then but....How can you not love the muppets?!
BTW I liked that picture b/c it reminds me of me. Not that I look like Miss Piggy or anything but I'm always walking around with a walkman (not a discman) listening often to FM.

Yeah, it's pretty cute.
I don't love muppets, because they can't really do anything. It's like, they're not cartoons, so all they can do is, sort of, walk around and talk. I dunno, it's hard to explain, i just never thought muppets were very funny. Sometimes i did, but...Also, they're kind of ugly. I dunno, it's like they're ugly animals who can't even do all the things humans can, mobility wise... :shrug:
I dunno, i know everyone likes the muppets - and good for them. Just not me. Oh, and actually, i think miss piggy used to really irritate me. As did other muppets. I liked Kermit ok.

:sorry: :xoxo: But you can definitely take comfort in the fact that, seemingly, EVERYONE ELSE ON THE PLANET likes them :woohoo:

Even as a child, I hated the muppets. I still find them most disturbing.

What's the world coming too?
LOL...maybe this is just an excuse NOT to talk about Mick's new album? No offense to the thread starter.

I don't hate it either! My favorite version of it is the Tusk documentary
'video'....I have such memories of seeing that frequently on MTV in the early 80's, and being sucked right into the hypnotic lull of it, and wishing that one day my dad could take me to a FM concert....maybe if I get all A's, and stop being fresh to my mother...
sorry, what decade are we in? :lol: oh, so glad to be out of jr high.
That was a magical video for me. Sara, Hold Me, Gypsy, and Tusk-- those 4 videos alone made me fall head over heels in love w/ this band.
But I still despise muppets.

Animal & Mick Fleetwood - Twins Separated At Birth?
Tehe...didn't I read somewhere that Animal was based on Mick...it was more likely Keith Moon. Oh Well...

You know what is funny, the Ms. Piggy pic in your sig really does look like Julie Andrews :shocked: :laugh: And that's not an insult to Julie either.
